Troubleshooting

Sticker not adhering properly

Ensure the bin surface was thoroughly cleaned and dried before application. Re-press the sticker firmly, especially around the edges. If the surface is textured or porous, adhesion may be reduced.

Bubbles under the sticker

Carefully lift a corner of the sticker and reapply, smoothing out the air as you go. For small bubbles, you may be able to gently prick them with a fine needle and press flat.

Sticker fading or peeling after a short time

Ensure the surface was clean and dry. Verify that the sticker was applied in a suitable location and has not been subjected to excessive scrubbing with abrasive materials. Check if the surface is indeed non-porous.
